After the firing of half of Twitter’s employees, it could be Facebook’s company Meta, the next Big Tech that’s kicking out thousands of people. This was reported exclusively to the Wall Street Journal by informed sources according to which the cuts will be announced Wednesday next week. It would be one of the biggest rounds in a recent wave of job cuts in the tech sector following the rapid growth of the industry during the pandemic.

At the end of September, more than 87,000 people were working in Meta. Company officials have already told employees to cancel non-essential travel starting this week.

Twitter recalls former employees

After firing about half of its staff, Twitter is now contacting dozens of employees who have lost their jobs asking them to return. This was reported by informed sources to the Bloomberg agency. Some were dismissed by mistake. Others, sources said, were sent away before management realized their work and experience may be needed to build the new social media features envisioned by new owner Elon Musk.
